“…And playing supports children in cognitive development so as to help children reach the next level (Casey, Reeves, & Conner (2012). Assistive technology can helpful in supporting the ability to access electronic learning resources (Andipurnama, Wiguna, Susetyo, & Novianti, 2022) and improving the problemsolving abilities (Suprotun, & Andriyani, 2022). Meanwhile, according to Suyadi, (2009) which states that the play while learning approach has advantages, which involve student activity in learning because learning through games invites every student to try new things.…”

Counting is a basic skill in mathematics. Counting skills need to be taught in early childhood. The mentally retarded have problems in mastering the ability to count. This study aims to describe the effect of using CAI-based mathematics education game (GEMA) media in learning simple arithmetic for mentally retarded students. A total of five subjects were students with mild mental retardation at Special School C Autism Kedungkandang State. In the study using the pre-experimental method in the form of one group pretest and posttest design, the data were obtained through the results of the pretest and posttest. Then the data is processed through analysis of hypothesis testing using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test technique. The results of the study explained that the average value of the pretest and posttest. each worth 51 and 81. With the results of the hypothesis test obtained the value of Asymp.Sig. (2-tailed) of 0.041, it can be concluded that H1 is accepted and H0 is rejected. Thus, the CAI-Based Mathematical Education Game (GEMA) has an effect on improving simple arithmetic skills in mentally retarded students.

The objective of this work is the elaboration of a vocal communication aid system for the blind in the Arab world, which is at the same time used as a system for learning Arabic for them or for non-native speakers. This system is a result of the development of a speech synthesizer for the Arabic language which is based on the concatenative synthesis method (end-to-end speech data collection (Eskenazi, Levow, Meng, Parent, & Suendermann, 2013)) of sub-syllable sound units typically stored in digital wave format (Vaseghi, 2008), obtained using software called PRAAT (Gold, Morgan, & Ellis, 2011; Pleva, Juhár, & Thiessen, 2015)) from a natural language corpus (Chou, Tseng, & Lee, 2002). The treatments in this study took place in different phases (العماري, 2021). Text analysis techniques are responsible for converting incoming text into a linguistic representation that encodes information about how the input text should be pronounced (Shiga, Ni, Tachibana, & Okamoto, 2020). The method used to produce missing phonetic units in syllable counts (CV) is to use mathematical symmetry from (VC), which as a result obtained the construction of a phonetic lexicon based on a reduced number of phonemes, which is 124 units; And improving the patterns resulting from inserting formula transitions into (VC) generated from their counterpart (CV) using this feature. Finally, the implications of this after including the linear smoothing stage (Dutoit, 1994) are to obtain speech outputs that resemble natural speech as much as possible without noise (Millstein, 2020), continuous, and intelligible at different levels of language that are able to be employed in synthesising intelligible speech, for blind individuals in the Arab community, noting that this method is for all languages of the world in terms of producing the quality of speech.

The objective of this work is to elaborate on a vocal communication aid system for blind individuals in the Arab world, which is also used as a system for learning Arabic for both individuals and nonnative speakers. This system is a result of the development of a speech synthesizer for the Arabic language, which is based on the concatenative synthesis method (end-to-end speech data collection (Eskenazi, Levow, Meng, Parent, & Suendermann, 2013)) of subsyllable sound units typically stored in digital wave format (Vaseghi, 2008), obtained using software called PRAAT (Gold, Morgan, & Ellis, 2011; Pleva, Juhár, & Thiessen, 2015)) from a natural language corpus (Chou, Tseng, & Lee, 2002).
